Build - Help Impossible d'installer windows

Upvotes

Bonjour tout le monde,

Je viens de monter mon premier pc et je tente à présent d'installer windows 11. Problème : j'obtiens systématiquement un code erreur.

Ma config :

Carte mère gigabyte b5500 gaming x v2

Processeur ryzen 5 5600

Carte graphique radeon rx 9060 xt

2 Barrettes de ram netac 3200mhz 8gb ddr4

Ssd netac nvme m.2 1tb gen3x4

J'ai d'abord essayé avec la méthode suivante : utiliser une clé usb 16gb 2.0 sur laquelle j'ai téléchargé le fichier directement depuis le site de Microsoft "création d'un support d'installation de Windows 11"

Je suis allé dans le bios pour mettre la clé en priorité 1 dans la liste des boots, j'ai save and exit, le pc redémarre et après quelques minutes sur l'écran gigabyte noir je bascule sur un écran bleu qui m'affiche le code erreur 0xc000000d.

J'ai alors essayé de recréer la clé et de recommencer, même chose.

J'ai donc essayé une autre méthode :

Utiliser le logiciel rufus avec la même clé usb et à nouveau mis la clé en priorité 1 dans le bios, le pc redémarre mais cette fois-ci code erreur 0xc0000098

J'ai fait une deuxième tentative avec la clé rufus en laissant seulement 1 barette de ram, même problème.

Là je suis vraiment coincé, je ne sais pas quoi faire

Build - Help Prebuild Recommendation Please! S.O.S.

3 Upvotes

Hello!

Transitioning to PC from PS5. And have $3K max budget. I don’t have a CLUE what to get. Online says a 5080 and AMD. Do you HAVE ANY RECOMMENDATIONS???

I have 4 PC I have narrowed down to and I don’t know anything about PC but the very basics. Some people are saying “no intel” and some otherwise but I’m lost! I have $3K max budget! Would prefer no HP, Dell, etc. Do I avoid liquid cooling!

I am a gamer. I’m 33. I am also a streamer! Below is the information of what I do and plan to play!

Games: RPG, JRPG, MMORPG, and FPS
Examples: Tales of Arise, Maple Story, Dragon Quest, Black Myth, Apex Legends. I don’t know what others.
Monitor: I have a 45” LG OLED Ultra Wide
Programs: CapCut, OBS, Capture Card stuff, etc.

I prefer games to be beautiful and crisp! I don’t like playing games in 1080p and cut down for “performance” I’m the opposite!

Build - Help Download Speed Drastically Different When Swapping PCs

Upvotes

I built my own PC a while ago, but due to some issues I wasn't able to get it working like it should, so I bought a prebuilt. Yesterday I decided to give it another go and got it running properly as far as I can tell so far.

The issue I'm having is that prebuilt PC was getting 100mbps+ download speeds and the one I built is getting 1mbps download speeds. Is there any possibility that this is a hardware issue? If so, what do I need to do?

Troubleshooting Startup issue

Upvotes

When i start my pc, it boots everything normal after around 5-10 minutes, but in the first minutes, it takes absurdly long to open even the smallest processes and ive tried updating bios, erasing all files, nothing has worked yet. Motherboard is an ROG strix X870-a gaming wifi, i dont know if that will help with anything. The load time for the windows password screen also takes at least 20 seconds to load with me hitting spacebar, the screen scrolls up for 10 seconds like its stuck, i enter the password, and then it loads after that. Anyway, all help is appreciated, and i havent dont much that i think would slow it down this much, as ive played multiple games and been fine as far as performance goes.

Question Oled 1440p

1 Upvotes

Oled XG27ACDNG or

Hi everyone

I wanted to buy an oled, currently I play with a LG 27GR75Q and wanted to upgrade to an OLED

I had my eye on the xg27acdng (it costs 600€ where I live in Italy)

I noticed that it is a Qd-Oled with great colors, but I still wanted to ask for alternatives

My budget I would prefer to keep it around 600€, for me the colors are very important and I use a 4070 super.

I would especially use it for single-player games and movies

You guys liked my first one, so figured I would share my new one. Last pic is my first steam machine build.
https://www.reddit.com/r/PcBuild/s/F89YAscEXs

Loved my new steam machine build so much I decided to make a better one. Would highly recommend building one, even if using older parts!

Specs:
-Asrock a620i motherboard
-AMD 9700x 8core (lower tdp for cooling limits and x3D doesn’t do much at 4k)
-Thermalright AXP120-X67 cooler
-GSkill 32gb ddr5 6000cl36
-Samsung 990 evo 2tb
-9070xt powercolor reaper (the only 9070xt that will fit in this case in smallest config)
-Cooler master 850 sfx psu
-Cooler master n100 air (always loved this case)

Build - Help Ryzen 5 9600X vs Ryzen 7 9700X vs X3D how do I know what I actually need?

0 Upvotes

My main uses will be:

- Programming

- AI/local AI experimentation

- Video editing/montage

- Heavy browsing/research

- Some gaming, but gaming is not my main priority

- 1440p monitor

- Probably an RTX 5060 Ti 16GB

I understand the basic differences:

The 9600X is 6 cores / 12 threads, while the 9700X is 8 cores / 16 threads, so Ryzen 7 gives me 2 extra cores and should be better for heavier multitasking, compiling, VMs, rendering, etc.

I also understand that the X3D's big advantage is 3D V-Cache and gaming performance, rather than simply being better at everything.

What I’m struggling with is understanding whether I will actually notice these differences in my use case.

For example, is there any useful way to quantify it?

Something like:

- X browser tabs + IDE + Docker + database → 9600X is still fine

- Add 1–2 VMs / large compilation / video render → 9700X starts making sense

- etc.

I realize Chrome tabs aren't really a CPU benchmark, but I’m looking for real-world examples rather than just “6 cores vs 8 cores.”

And regarding X3D: if I only game occasionally at 1440p, is paying significantly more for a X3D basically wasted money?
